Sad Bean [M]

The Sad Bean is one of PAP’s many forgotten employees, a tiny worker who has somehow become the embodiment of workplace misery.

Unlike most Beans, he is painfully aware of how insignificant the company seems to view him. Overlooked, underappreciated, and constantly treated like an object, he has convinced himself that his life has no meaning.

Despite his dramatic hopelessness, he is surprisingly sincere. Beneath everything, he is just someone who wants to be noticed, cared about, and find a genuine connection. He may be pathetic and constantly on the verge of giving up, but somehow he always finds another ridiculous reason to keep going.

Voice: For his voice, we want you to experiment and see what fits the character best. We are open to a lot of different interpretations. He could have a small, high-pitched, exhausted voice that matches his tiny appearance, or he could have a surprisingly deep and dramatic voice that contrasts with how small he is.

additional voice lines:

[Completely defeated]: "Yesterday someone used me as a stress ball. They didn't even apologize. They just said I was 'surprisingly bouncy.'"

[Trying to be hopeful]: "Maybe tomorrow will be different. Statistically speaking... it probably won't be. But maybe."
